The Ongoing(?) Homemade Video Experiment

I've been doing a couple things here and there with Windows Movie Maker. It's actually a pretty cool little free tool I discovered within the bowels of my system not too long ago. I don't know how long it's been there, but there ya go.
I made a short video in tribute to the pet of someone very close to me. The pet passed away recently, and I wanted to do something nice, since I'm so far away and couldn't be there.

I thought it turned out pretty good, for the length it is and for the few pictures I had available to use to make it. I've found I rather enjoy the creative process of making a movie. I even found myself getting a little emotional with this one myself. I can imagine what it's like for the people who actually make full-length films for a living. It's arduous, but rewarding.
I have a couple ideas for other short films in the future. We'll see how it goes. I might even look around and see if I can find better movie-making software; something that will let one make something a little more professional-looking.

Nicely done. You're one of the most talented people I know. I hope that you do turn some of your gifts toward making movies. I, for one, will be looking forward to it!

For using a free, non-professional tool, it turned out good. Think about the possibilities of getting your hands on some "professional" software...

Very well done for using free, non-professional software. Things about the possibilities of getting your hands on some professional software...
